New beta releases of Firefox 3.6 are coming thick and fast. After Beta 3 last week, Mozilla has now made served up a fourth revision, available to download at Mozilla.com.

As with prior releases, Firefox 3.6 Beta 4 contains numerous bug fixes - over 100, says Mozilla - and improved support for the many Firefox add ons.

According to Mozilla's release notes, almost 70 per cent of the thousands of currently available Firefox add ons have now been upgraded to support the Firefox 3.6 Beta. Here's another interesting statistic: according to Mozilla, over 370 bug fixes have been introduced since the launch of the first Beta just a few weeks ago.
